Yes, Brandon Wegher is Iowa's lone healthy running back right now. Adam Robinson isn't practicing after shoulder surgery. Jewel Hampton is still coming back from the torn ACL last summer. He dressed early, but has also been rested.
What else? The O-line appears to be (from left to right) Riley Reiff, Julian Vandervelde, James Ferentz, Adam Gettis and Markus Zusevics. Will it stay that way? Probably not. There are at least two and maybe three contenders for starting roles.
How about defense? I really think senior Jeff Tarpinian will start. I have no idea where. At left corner, sophomore Micah Hyde is holding onto the No. 1 spot right now.
Kicker? We'll get our first glimpse into the competition between Daniel Murray and Trent Mossbrucker on April 17, when Iowa holds its spring scrimmage at 1 p.m. (Anyone remember 1 .p.m. kickoffs? Those are dead and gone.)
Let's chat Iowa spring football Wednesday. We'll begin at noon. Click the chat box below.
Thanks for reading and a sincere thanks for your participation. (It might only be me, so it might be slower but hopefully I'll get to more questions).
